4.4 Cable and adaptator informaon
A large choice of cables and adaptors are compable with the SmartMatriX². Please refer to the hardware 
specicaons chapter to nd the most suitable cables for your operaons. 
For each type of signal, here are the levels and the impedance accepted by the SmartMatriX².
